Horse Museum

The Horse Museum exhibits 4,000 items including agricultural tools, carts, sledges, and work implements from across Lithuania dating to the 19th century.

Professor Petras Vasinauskas established the museum in 1978 after traveling 1,500 kilometers by horse cart to raise awareness about equine preservation.

The museum hosts an annual summer festival called 'Run, Run, Horses' at Niūronys hippodrome, featuring cultural performances and sporting events.

The facility maintains eleven buildings with stables and offers horseback riding experiences along a 12-kilometer recreational trail through Anykščiai Regional Park.

Local farmers contributed to the collection by donating original equipment and live horses, creating an authentic representation of Lithuanian agricultural heritage.

Opening Hours: May-August Monday-Sunday 9:00-18:00; September-April Monday-Sunday 9:00-17:00
